Soul Conversation brings together musicians, culture-bearers, and community leaders to reflect on Albina’s historic Black music community and its enduring impact. These panel discussions honor the ways in which musicians anchored the historic Albina community—inside clubs, churches, schools, and everyday life—while looking ahead to what the musician community in Black Portland continues to become.

Each conversation is grounded in lived experience and presented alongside archival photography from Albina Music Trust’s community archive, helping audiences place voices, faces, and stories in context.
